Some things are do-able. Others would require a constant update service which can only function as a business. And when it comes to modding, that's a no-go, due to IP and rights. An app that would be do-able would basically require a "kit" vanilla JA2 (provided by the user) and it would handle the menial tasks of making separate installs for each mod, apply needed patches, etc. But that's about how far it can go. What sevenfm did with his modpack is exactly what v1.13 was designed for. The releases aren't for public consumption, they are meant for modders to take, work on them, build new stuff and ONLY THEN publish as full mod stable mods. Over the years people have started using the devkit directly out of curiosity, but that wasn't the initial idea.

I do secretly hope though that one day someone would make a Steam Workshop or Nexus mods for JA2 v1.13. But I also want to win the lottery before that...
